Paul Mulshine, NJ.com: Drilling down on a crazy government: Trump can't be any nuttier than Bush and Obama
Maybe it was the Novocaine, but last week I had an epiphany:
This country has been run by insane people for this entire century.
We started out the 2000s with no deficits and no wars.
We ended up with more debt than we can count and more wars than we can count.
I gleaned this knowledge as I was having a couple of crowns installed by my dentist. He's got a TV set up by the chair and the patient can pick the channel.

I never thought of these boobs as crazy, I have always believed more in along the lines as incompetent, stupid, and corrupt, but crazy that works for me. I would go back much further though maybe to the dawn of civilization and I would include everyone, 99.9% of everyone that has ever lived including me and everyone I have every known. Civilization will not survive because everyone is insane, the real issues, that need to be addressed will never be dealt with, overpopulation, nuclear weapons, war, crime, greed, corruption etc, can't have a discussion anymore without turning into a insult fest, there is no comprise anymore, the center his been destroyed. For God's sake don't ever bring a fact to the table, nobody on the Left or Right cares about facts, and when they use any it's to further their insane agendas. I will now retire back into my madness.
